Since my last posting here I made a pleasant return visit to Waldenbooks in Manassas Mall, and had a good first time at the Borders in Frederick, Maryland. Both stores featured my mysteries and I made lots of new friends while signing books.

But the big news this week is that I was invited to join eight other authors who contribute to an exciting and varied web log. As its name implies, "Criminal Minds at Work" gives readers a chance to step into the minds of a group of talented, twisted, slightly psychotic crime novelists. I am proud to be included in that group, and I’ve just posted my first entry, introducing myself to this new team’s audience.  Check out my first post on Criminal Minds at Work.
